Caevan O’Shite Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Yeah, if it does justice to the old Traynor YBA-1 Bass Master head, it'll be a cool amp! I have a 1966 YBA-1 head and it's not for sale! Your amp looks a lot like mine in many ways, inside and out. The original '60s/'70s Traynor YBA-1 was really pretty much a disguised version of the 50 watt Marshal "plexis" crossed a bit with some Hiwatt designs, for the most part; came with a pair of 6CA7's (EL34's can easily be used instead), and they changed the names of some of the controls and called it a "bass amp".

Bluesape Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I have an old Lifco - much smaller and simpler than yours. Lots of ballsy character! Never a DUH! moment! Well, almost never. OK, OK! Sometimes never! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simus35 Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 i have only one more question. how we can remove the cigarette smoke odor on a cab and the case of the amp sorry for my english i'm a french Canadien fender 65 Twin Reverb reissue Fender Stratocaster 1999 MIA Fender Stratocaster 2013 MIA Godin Artisan ST-5 Godin LG Signature Seagull S6 Yes I love Godin guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caevan O’Shite Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 i have only one more question. how we can remove the cigarette smoke odor on a cab and the case of the amp Try a cloth lightly dampened in some warm water with "Dawn Plus Odor Eraser" dish-soap, followed by cool, clear clean water. Don't get too much water on it, and don't get it in the amp or controls or the speaker. The leave it drying with a fan blowing on it for a while. If that's not enough, try some of these things like Fabreze or Lysol; again, carefully, sprayed first on a cloth and wiped on.
